The FSH (EP257) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody is a high-performance reagent designed for the specific detection of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples. FSH is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, essential in regulating reproductive processes including ovarian follicle development in females and spermatogenesis in males. This antibody is produced using recombinant rabbit monoclonal technology, offering superior affinity, specificity, and consistency across IHC applications. The EP257 clone demonstrates strong cytoplasmic staining of FSH-producing cells in the pituitary, making it an invaluable tool in the diagnosis of pituitary adenomas, particularly gonadotroph adenomas, and in endocrine pathology. Ideal for both diagnostic and research purposes, the FSH (EP257) antibody helps identify abnormal hormone expression in various pituitary lesions and contributes to the classification of functional versus non-functional pituitary tumors. Its use also extends to reproductive biology and endocrine system studies, where precise hormone localization is crucial.
